Naval and Military Intelligence. The Cadmus, 21, 400 horse-power, completed her altera tion and repairs at Chatham on Saturday, and was floated out of dock at high water, and placed at her moorings op posite the dockyard. Her official trial of speed has been postponed for some days in consequence of several of the officials connected with the steam reserve being engaged on an important trial in the Court of Queen's Bench. In con sequence of the inferior description of copper used for the tubes for the boilers of the Cadmus it was found necessary to remove the whole and supply all the boileis with new tubing. This circumstance taken in connexion with the strong reports from time to time made to the Admiralty of the faulty character of the tubes sent in from private firms for use in Chatham dockyard has induced their lordships to issue an order directing that in future the whole pf the boiler tubes supplied by private manufacturers are to be sent to Chatham dockyard, where they are to be subjected to a rigid test before being used. Any not found satisfac• tory will be rejected. Care is at the same time to be taken that the tubes supplied by each manufacturer are to be used in separate boilers, so that a fair comparison may be made of the wear of each. This arrangement, there is every reason to believe, will prove a corrective for what has been for some time past a fruitful cause at complaint by the offi ciala'connected with the steam branch at each of the dock yards. t h D o During o p t h t i e o n s last ot f i e r o w n d h a a y v s e b ar e large s r e u o p e p i v l i e e d s : f t plate t h a a n m d o dockyard from the several contractors under engagement to provide the Admiralty with the quality of iron required for the construction of the iron-clad ships now building.

The iron steam floating factory Chasseur has been re moved from Chatham and sent down the harbour to Sheer ness, whore she will be employed in connexion with the vessels fitting for the first-class steam reserve. First Lieut. M. A. S. Bree, of the Woolwich division of the Royal Marines, was tried by court-martial on board the Royal Adelaide at Devonport, on Friday, on a charge of drunkenness, preferred by Capt. Lambert, of her Majesty's ship Liverpool. The drunkenness is alleged to have occurred on the 22d of November, just after the arrival of the Liver pool in Plymouth Sound from the West Indies. Capt. Phillimore, of her Majesty's ship Defence, presided. After hearing the evidence of Capt. Lambert, of Commander Leech, and of Capt. IL E. W. Lane, in support of the pro secution, and Mr Spear, surg., Mr Tremble, assist.-surg., Lieut. Watts, Royal Marine Artillery, Mr Jones, engineer, and others, for the defence, the Court decided, in conse quence of the contraditory nature of the evidence, that the charge had not been established, and they, therefore, ac quitted the prisoner. A fire, which was soon extinguished, occurred about 11 o'clock on Saturday in the Devonport dockyard. It broke out in the pitch-house, a:detached building close to the rooks at the north end of the establishment. The roof over the caldron was destroyed. It is supposed to have been caused by a want of pitch in the copper, in consequence of which the sides became overheated and the contents ignited. The Prussian screw steam corvette Victoria, 14, Capt. Batsch, from Gravesend, which put into Plymouth Sound wind-bound on Monday, the 28th ult., left again on Friday the 2d inst for a cruise. Admiral Superintendent Thomas M. C. Symonds, C. 8., at Devonport, paid off on Saturday the crew of the screw steam corvette Jason, 21, Capt. Edward P. B. von Donop, and the crew of the screw steam gunboat Steady, 6, Com mander Frederick Harvey, who were brought home pas sengers in the Jason. The division at Aldershot, under the command of Lieut. Gen. Sir J. L. Pennefather, K.C.8., paraded onThorn-hill, at half-past 10 o'clock on Thursday morning, for field manoeuvres, the infantry regiments being furnished with 10 rounds of blank ammunition per man. Tho troopshaving been formed up in order of battle were set in motion shortly before 11 o'clock, the direction of the intended operations being north-west. The cavalry and D battery Royal Horse At finery, the latter under the command of Lieut. Colonel Mitchell, proceeded to the Farnborough - road, while Major-General Bates's brigade descended Thorn hill, the 60th Rifles throwing out skirmishers, General Russel marched his brigade towards the camp canal bridge, accompanied by a detachment of E battery, 9th Brigade, Royal Artillery; and Gen. Taylor's brigade, with the 2d division of this battery, wheeled off towards the canal bridge, near the commissariat. The F (or Grey) battery, Royal Artillery, remained on Thorn-hill. In this order the troops pushed forward, the Royal Engineer Train, under the command of Capt. Duff, quickly throwing a pontoon blidge over the canal, towards which the 2d Brigade was moving. At eleven o'clock F battery opened fire upon the enemy, who appeared to be retiring upon a strong position near the North Camp. The firing was well sustained, and was taken up by the Ist Brigade, which had now reached the common. Simultaneously with the advance of this brigade the 3d Brigade could be seen debouching from the camp canal bridge and the 2d Bridge crossing the pontoon bridge. The three brigades threw out skirmishers, who soon presented a front which extended for about a mile and a half. General Taylor now rapidly converged his force on theother brigades, and Gen. Russell coming quickly into action on the left opened a brisk file-fire upon the enemy. This was con tinued for several minutes, and Gen. Bates advanced his brigade to the support of Gen. Russell. " Cease firing" was sounded, and after an apparent lull in the contest the action recommenced by Gen. Bates opening a vigorous fire from his brigade. This appeared to stagger the enemy, and a general advance took place in the direction of Ceve-cora moo, the Lieut.-Gen. bringing his whole force to bear upon this point, apparently for a decisive manoeuvre. On reach ing the common the 14th Hussars took ground to the south ward, and the Scots Greys and Royals to the north, facing west. The whole of the artillery took up a most advan tageous position in the centre, presenting a formidable line of 18 guns. The 14th Hussars and the Greys skirmished on their respective flanks, the artillery again opened fire, the skirmishers were recalled, and the 14th retired by squad rons. When the fire of the artillery ceased Gen. Taylor threw his brigade forward in the centre, supported by Gen. Bates, while Gen. Russell made a similar movement on the left, the 14th Hussars retiring. These brigades deployed into line, the 2d in rear of the Ist. The Ist and 3d brigades again opened fire upon the enemy, now beaten to his last position, and a smart fusillade completed his discomfiture. The troops then returned to quarters. In accordance with a resolution recently passed at a vestry meeting of the inhabitants of Aldershot, a memorial has been drawn up praying that step s may be taken by the Government to provide a suitable building to carry out in Aldershot the provisions of the Act 27th and 28th Victoria, cap. 85, otherwise known as the Contagions Diseases rre- The following appointments have been made at the Ad miralty :—Commander C.

Lord Clarence Paget MP., and his Con. stituents. j,ord Clarence Fagot, vac of the numbers for Sandwich, addressed his constituents at Dual, on Friday evening. Owing to the indisposition of the mayor, Mgr George Hughes occupied the chair. Lord Clarence Pager, having been introduced by the chairman, referred at some length to the foreign and finan cial policy of the Government, and he went on to say that with regard to naval expenditure it bad been his earnest endeavour to watch over, control, and limit it; and if any gentleman should ask him why he was not oftener amongst them, paying them his personal respects, his answer must be that ho was watching over their naval expenditure. The expenditure of the navy, it mas true—and he was thankful for it—had been reduced very considerably within the last two or three years. Yet the naval estimates had amounted to no loss a sum than £12,750,000. The estimates for the present year were something like £10,750,000, showing a reduction of £2,000,000. He spoke not out of disrespect to any previous Government, but if he were asked why this enormous expenditure had been necessary he must frankly reply that in the year when the present Government came into office the navy of this country was not in a satisfactory state. We had neither the quantity of ships, nor had we the number of men, which it was absolurely necessary we should maintain if we at the same lime desired that Eng land should maintain her position as a great naval power. The consequence had undoubtedly been an enormous expenditure, hut the result of that expenditure was that we had now, either built or in various degrees of construction, no less than thirty armour-plated ships. Now, when he talked of thirty ships it was perhaps not easy to realise what that represented in money, but when he reminded them that each of our armour-plated ships cost nearer half a million than a quarter of a million, some idea would be formed of the expenditure which had been necessary in constructing our armour-plated fleet. They would remember perfectly well that in those days, some four years ago, we used to suffer from a sort of chronic panic. We used to hear that the country was utterly unfit to repel invasion, that we had.neither ships nor troops, and that we were in fact at the mercy of any nation who chose to invade us or to insult our flag. We did not hear of these things now. Englishmen did not now express their apprehension of danger from invasion or insult, and he therefore asked whether he might not therefore claim continued confidence on this score in her Majesty's Government. The noble lord then spoke of Mr Cobden's views as expressed in his recent speech at Rochdale, and continued—lt was his fortune during the past session of Parliament to be called on by the House of Commons to state, as chairman of a very impor tant committee—that committee being appointed to inquire into the dock accommodation existing in our dockyards, in the country generally, and in the colonies, that our dock accommodation was wholly insufficient for the wants of the navy. It was true that it was his duty as chairman to frame the report of that committee, yet he nevertheless could not subscribe to every paragraph it contained, for he thought they were apt, when they went into inquiries upon these important matters, to forget that we had vast private esta blishments in thin country'which might always be counted upon, in the event of an emergency, both for repairing and docking our ships. Nevertheless, he was bound to say that the evidence the committee received, and the conclusion to which they came, showed that the dock and basin accom modation for her Majesty's navy was insufficient for its wants. lie alluded to this fact because he wished to put frankly before his audience what had been and what kit un done. Ile quite admitted that it required very great exer tions op the part of the public to put our great naval esta blishments into the position which was befitting and neces sary for the navy, and therefore in stating that which ho now did he was sure they would believe that the estimates to be submitted to Parliament for the maintenance of her Ma.. jesty's navy would be framed with the utmost regard to economy, although the views of Mr Cobden with regard to sweeping reductions would not be entertained, Indeed, they must expect, and he was sure when they came to be acquainted with the details they would justify the Govern ment in propos ng, a considerable increase in the votes for dock and basin accommodation. He had adverted generally to the policy of the Government, both with regal d to foreign affairs and with regard to the navy, and ho now wished to allude to some points which would be interesting more espe cially to the naval officers and friends he saw around him. A groat many criticisms had been given out to the public with regard to the action of the Admiralty upon several matters to which ho would briefly allude. He had told them the Government was maintaining a very large force, indeed something like 7 5 ,000 men, y e t th e y had doubtless read that in spite of this the Admi ra l ty had ha d difficulty in manning our ships. There was possibly not a corner of the country that had not been alarmed within the last few weeks by a report that there had been groat difficulty in manning our line-of-battle ship Victoria. (Hear.) It was stated by one of the leading newspapers a few weeks ago, and the statement had occasioned conaiderahle alarm, that great difficulty had been found in manning the three docker, now fitting as a flagship in the Mediterranean, and that the Admiralty, in order to make up her complement, had unmanned other s hips, so averse were th e seamen of this country to serve i n her Majesty's navy. Now ho would tell them what was really the fact. The Vi c t oria was comm i ss i one d on t h e 2d Nov. last. As soon as her officers had joined, orders were given to complete her complement, which was done in 48 hours, the only vacancies remaining in the ship being for five shipwrights. He was told the other day that the crew of the Victoria had been got together from the scum of society, and that they were not a real man-of-war's crew. Ho had, however, taken great pains to examine the report of the Commander-in-Chief at Portsmouth, who inspected the ship, and his report of the s hi p ' s company, which he (Lord Cl are nce Paget) had copied, was this—"A good ship's company, and above the average in appearance and quality ; c lean and well clothed." (Hear, hear.) He desired to allude to one more point concerning naval administration. The recent experiments which had been made in gunnery, and likewise with regard to armour plating, had boon watched with considerable interest. Among other systems one had engaged public attention to a groat extent—he meant the turret system. A very intelligent officer of the n avy had brought this system to consider a bl e perfection on board la and many interesting trials had taken the c R e genera lly supposed that there was a p re j u di ce a t th e Admi ralty against the turret system, and that consequently the p Royal Sovereign, the past summer. Now he found it was Royal Sovereign was destined to be l a id upon t h e s h e lf an d kept out of tho view of the public. Nothing could be more fallacious than this idea. It gave bim sincere pleasure to state, that as far as experience had gone in the working of the turret system, that system was a great success. It had been found that various difficulties which were anti cipated by many vanished in practice, He was one of those who had always been very sanguine that this ' system of naval defence would take a high place in this country, and he had every reason to be equally sanguine now. But with respect to the Royal Sovereign, her own captain, one of the most distinguished officers of the navy, reported the., although the turret system in his opinion, and in the opinion of all on board, worked most satisfac torily, the Royal Sovereig n as she was was not sufficiently a cruising ship for sea-going purposes, and that the utmost that could be expected of her was that she should be used for the protection of our coast, or in an emergency sent to the Mediterranean. Under these circumstances the Admi ralty thought it would be unwise to keep this ship in com mission, as it was evident she could not fulfil all the condi tions of a seagoing ship. but with the vi ew an d th e ea rn e st desire of carrying out fully experiments in this system they were making modifications in various ma tt er s of detail. Some accidents undoubtedly occurred to the ship. Her hawse holes wore damaged, and in various other respects she required repair, but he could only say that the moment she was ready she would bo put to sea. He would add one word more on the subject. So impressed were the Admi ralty with the success of the turrets so far as they had ow under consideration the worked, that that they had n sion of one of our large armour plated . ships which were now in course of construction into a ship upon the turret system. (Cheers.) The nobl b? d hen re recentlyt made a local nature, alluding to th? improvements the and in course of contemplation in the town of Deal, recent completion of a new pier, and the proposal for carry ing out harbour and dock accommodation now heforethe his speech amid warm manifestations public, and conclude d of applause, On the motion of Mr E. Brown, seconded by Mr Bushell, a vote of continued confidence was passed to his lordship, and thanks to the chairman concluded the pro ceedings. EDINBURGH, Deo. 3. This case was called to•day at the First Division of the Court of Session for the purpose of hearing parties on the motion of Major Yolverton to apply the judgment of the House of Lords, and on the counter motion of the pursuer to supersede consideration of the defender's motion, and allow a condescendence res noviter (a statement of new matter) to be added to the record and remitted to proof. It may be necessary to explain that the House of Lords in giv ing judgment on Scotch appeals remits it to the Court below to apply and carry out the judgment, and to grant the ex tract which brings it into operation. On the meeting of the Court fur the Winter Session the defender petitioned for application of the judgment, and the pursuer fur admitting new evidence. By the pursuer's motion thi. question is now raised whether the duty of the Court below is purely minis terial or to some extent discretionary. Tho pursuer prac tically asks the inferior Court to suspend the judgment of the court above, and reopen the whole cause. Mr Campbell Smith, for the pursuer, acknowledged that the motion he now made was quite unprecedented. It had never been granted in any previous case, but on the other hand it had never been refused. What the pursuer asked leave to do was to lodge a condescendence of facts which had come to her knowledge since the final judgment. The sub stance of it was, that Major Yelverton on a visit to his brother Frederick, when on his deathbed, admitted that ho had married the pursuer in Scotland. They should prove that Major Yelverton visited his brother during his last illness,. and. then-thedyitag brother • • • double marriage, and stated that it was a misfortune; and asked him how, after reading the marriage service with Miss Longworth in Scotland and after being married to her in Ire. land he could have married another woman,Mrs Forbes. Ma. jor Yelverton replied it was a sad thing to have done so, but that it could not be helped now, and that at the tiwe ho married Mitis Longworth he had no intention - of marrying . _ Mrs Forbes or anybody but Miss Longworth. (A laugh.) That was the substance of the conversation which they undertook to prove. It had reached them in as trustworthy a way as it was possible to get such information. The nurse who had attended Frederick Yelverton on his death bed died in the Sick Children's Hospital in Dublin in 1862, but before her death she communicated to the chaplain of the hospital what she had heard take place between the two brothers. Thoy heard nothing of this statement until the reversal of the decision of the Court of Session by the House of Lords, the clergyman believing that there was no need of any information being communicated on the sub ject. It was also shown by the evidence of at least one gen- lemon in the confidence of the deceased Frederick Yelver• ton that he believed his brother had married the pur suer in Scotland, and that he had founded hie belief on what had passed between him and his brother, Major Yel- verton, after the marriage with Mrs Forbes, and when he tried to get the pursuer sent out of the country. The per son to whom Frederick Yelverton made this statement in the end of 1858 was Mr Biggs, of Bannagher, who was then factor on the estates of his fither-in-law, Lord Avonmore. The statement by Frederick was that his brother had made a perfect fool of himself by marrying Mrs Forbes—(a laugh) —and, further, that his belief of the marriage with Miss Longworth was induced by a conversation with Major Yelverton. We are also prepared to prove that Frederick Yelverton had made similar acknowledgments before his death to other persons, and that he founded his belief on what Major Yelverton himself bad communicated to him. The Lord President—You are to prove that Frederick believed that Major Yolverton had married Miss Longworth, and that he based his belief on information he had received from Major Yelverton. Mr Smith—We believe that other witnesses besides Mr Biggs can be found to speak to it. Frederick left a widow, who, we believe, would be able to speak to it; but we are as yet able to tell what she would say. Lord Deas—Why Mr Smith— She is reluctant to speak. She is on frieudly terms on the other side. Lord Ardmillan—You want an opportunity of finding out what others would say I' Mr Smith— Yes. We will do what we can to corroborate the evidence of the other two. But the new evidence we now offer is, I submit, evidence which would have led to a different final judgment in the case, as supplying what was chiefly desiderated by tho judges of the Court of Appeal— namely, serious acknowledgments of marriage. It is quite clear, in the face of our statement—which must be assumed to bokue at the present stage—that this would have been regarded as serious —that the acknowledgment which we may was made .would have been regarded as a very serious ono. A. more serious acknowledgment Cannot possibly be con ceived than the one wo havo set forth here. A deathbed it. always a place where one may be expected to be serious, more especially at a brother's. That is a placo consecrated by everything which could make any place sacred, not merely by natural affection, but by Cho presence of " That shadow cloaked from head to foot, That keeps the keys of all the creeds. 1 lherofore eubulit thatlhat would have been a woet valu able piece of evidence, and that it ought t) be admitted to proof, Mr Gordon, fur Major Yelverton, submitted that tho re. tnits of the House of Lords were judgments which the Cour' of Session must implicitly carry out. Tho judgment of the House of Lords in theYelverton case was clear and explicit, and there was no reason for delay in applying that judg ment. There had been many litigants who had boon obsti nately persistent in their applications to this court, but there was no case of an application like this made after a final judgment in the cause. It would rcquiro a strong argument therefore, to induoo the Court to comply with the demand now made. The truth was they had no aiternativo but to put on the record the judgment of the House of Lords, lie held that there was no case for the introduction of rcs no- vita'. The pursuer had had opportunity of proving what Major Yelverton had said to his brother, and of making all the proper investigatiors to find that out. But he submitted that this whole statement, was destitute of foundation, and that there never was such a woman as Sarah Melling in at tondanco on Frederick Yelverton. Lord Dons—Surely that could be found out, The Lord Advocate—That statement is certainly yes no viler. (A laugh.) Mr Gordon---It is well known that this case has been much talked of throughout the country, and it is really al together incredible that this clergyman was not aware of the importance of any statement made by Major Yelverton. The pursuer was in this position, that she might by reason• able diligence have discovered any statement made by Major Yelverton ; but she did not use that diligence, and had been content to take judgment upon the record which had been presented, so that it was too late now to put in this ap plication. If this was allowed, where was it to end? - The Lord Advocate replied for the pursuer. lie con tended that the allegations were distinct and must be held as true at this stage. They were also material and impor tant. Can there be a doubt, ho said, that if Sarah Mallins attended Frederick Yelverton on his deathbed, and if she on her deathbed made that statement as to the reading of the marriage service, that would have had a most material bearing on the subject-matter of the suit? As to the ques tion whether your lordships would have believed Sarah Mallins's statement or not, that is a matter we need not enter into here: but if you would have believed it, then that would have given just the turning point to tho whole case ; for it that conversation was truly hear and truly re pealed, there would have been no doubt of the truth of the landlady's evidence of what took place on that occasion, and it would have given an aspect to the whole evidence most materially in favour of the pursuer. His lordship pro ceeded to say that if the allegations were sufficient to en title the pursuer to reduce the judgment,they were sufficient to entitle her to interpose before the judgment was applied. The Lord President stated thatjudgment would be given next week, The following are the affidavits referred to in the discus Mon : "I.—Affidavit of the Rev. Edward George Campbell, A.M. "I, Edward George Campbell, A.M., Clerk, rector of Kilderry, in the diocese of Ossory, make oath and say— That in the year 1861, and about the beginning of the year 1862, I visited on several occasions a person called Sarah Mallins, who was a patient in the Meath Hospital, Dublin, and in which she died early in the month of January. I attended her as her clergyman, she being then in a dying state, and had several conversations with her, in the course of which she informed me that she had attended on the late Hon. Frederick Yelverton in his last illness, which termi noted in death in or about the month of February, 1860; that he expressed much uneasiness of conscience at the part ho had taken with his brother, Major Yelverton, in relation to the marriage of the latter. She also stated that she heard the said Frederick Yelver ton say to the said Major Yelverton, We are ruined by your marriage with Mistress Forbes. How could you take her after reading the marriage service with Miss Longworth in Scotland, and afterwards being again married in Ireland ?"rhat the said Major Yelverton replied, It is a sad thing to have acted so, but it can't bo helped now. When I read that marriage service with her 1 had fully resolved to have her as my wife, and it was to satisfy her importunities I renewed it again in Ireland, 1 had u) thought. of deserting her then, or to marry Mrs Forbes, or anybody.' And I say that the said Sarah Mallins appeared to me to speak with candour, and I have remembered what she said distinctly, and have given the substance of it cop• rectly and accurately.

" TILOS. CURRAN, " WM. Biggs." Master Extraordinary, THE CIVIL WAR IN AMERICA. (From the Times Correspondent.) NEW YORK, Nov. 22. Prior, daring, and for a few days subsequent to the meeting of the Chicago Convention the popular desire for peace was so violent as almost to constitute a mania. The war was represented not only as a failure in the past, but as bound to he a failure in the future. Such was the discouragement consequent upon the tardy discovery that the unparalleled sacrifices of the straggle had been incurred in vain, and that if the war were to last another year de mands more enormous than ever would have to be made upon the by no means inexhaustible fountains of the blood and treasure of the people, that a spon- taneous conviction seemed to take possession of men's minds that the time had come when, by means of an armistice and a national convention it.might be ascertained whether, by mutual concession, the Union might not be reconstructed without further bloodshed. The tendency towards peace was so 'nuked that every body believed that the story of the war, like a good novel or romance, was about to end happily, and that, all their troubles over, the North and South would live happily for the re• mainder of their lives. It looked as if the voice of passion had been silenced, and that reason had re. sumed her away. And when the convention so lemnly adopted a peace platform an impartial ob server might have been we►ll warranted in believing that the better half of the Americans were really deserving of the Democratic liberty of which they proclaimed themselves champions and apostles, and were about to verify the confident predictions of the Sowards, the Greelings, the Everetts, and all the philosophers except those of the petticoat and the pulpit, by Bottling their differencts in calm delibe ration and sober second thought. But it was all a mistake and a misconception. Tho appearances were illusory. There was one swal'ow, but no sum mer. The passion of tho people for Union a tout prix was as engrossing► as ever. The peace mania, so pre valent, was nothing but a freak of petulaec©. It was born of imp 4tience and disappointment, and had no dwelling-place in the heart, or hold upon the conscience of the multitude. The capture of Atlanta by Gen. Sherman rendered the Chicago platform unpopular, robbed it of its main plank, and induced ita candidate to comtnit an act of political and pro fessional suicide. The whisper of peace was over powered by shouts for the more vigorous prosecu. Lion of the war, Tho appetite for victory was sti. mutated, not sated, by the morsel which Sherman had thrown, and all the brutal instincts of the crowd were excited into madness. Not that the people really desired war, or took any delight in the horrors of the battle-field, or the sanguinary "glory" which their Generals, with Grant and Sherman at their head, were promising to acquire for them ; but that once more they saw in military success a better hope than in negotiation for the restoration of that be loved Union, for the sake of which they are and always have been perfectly ready to sacrifice their credit, their happiness, and their liberty. The triumphant re-election of Mr Lincoln, the great things expected of the armies in the field, and the supposed discouragement of the South, consequent upon its alleged want of men and money, have again turned the thoughts of the Northern people towards peace. This timo, however, the wind does not blow from the old quarter. It is not discourage ment but hope which breaths gentle airs and words ()I forgiveness. The people do not fear as before that the South is to be the conqueror, but lookingupon victory as already within their grasp, they desire to prove that their quarrel is a quarrel of friends and rela• lives with which the outer world has no concern— and that the North at the proper time can be as gene. rous as she has shown herself to be valiant. Gene ral Butler—who loves to create a sensation as dearly as if he were a novelist—led the way ; and the great crowd followed, with as much momentum of eager. ness as the smaller crowd displayed at Chicago. The assumption upon which this new born hope is founded is that the North is on the point of final conquest; that the South, in American parlance, must speedily "cave in," and that it would bo a groat, noble, and magnanimous act on the part of Mr. Lincoln to offer not alone peace, but brother. hood, amity, and complete forgiveness to the Southern leaders and people on the sole condition of " Union. The idea was too littering to Northern pride not to become popular. For more than a week, a very long time in America, it has had pos session of the newspapers, the exchange, and the bar-room ; affected the price of gold and food; in. terfered with the calculations of commerce, and pleased the imagination of the multitude with visions of reduced taxation, cheapened necessaries of life, the disbanding► of armies and the relinquish. ment, now and for all time to come, of such eras. perating projects as forced conscriptions. if any one of cooler temperament ventures to hint a doubt that, after all, the South may not be in the despe rate plight supposed, and may, consequently, hav ing quite as much pride as the North, reject all overtures and all offers which do not include the recognition of its independence, the reply is more apt to assume the form of vituperation than of argu. mont, If the objector be an American, he is a " traitor" and a" copperhead." If ho be an English. man, he is ignorant and prejudiced, and is but re echoing the sentiments of th© British aristocracy, of whom he is doubtless a bribed agent. At all events he is en enemy of " our great country," and not trustworthy in ally opinion he may form or any assertion which ho may make o❑ an American subject. At the close of last week it NV4B generally believed that Mr. Lincoln, strong in the possession of re■ ncwcd power, if not popularity, would make the first overture to the South, by despatching a dept. tation to Richmond of statesmen whose antecedents were such as would not render them personally die. tasteful to the Confederate leaders, and whose known attachment to the Union were such as to assure the Northern people that the cause was safe in their hands. Some went so far as to name the gentlemen selected—names that it would serve no purpose to repeat, but of which it may be noted as , evidence of 'th e di rect i on in wia. popular 'opi n i on has set, that is one tb, belonged t o as Ab o li t i onist, or to a mem b er o f t h e extreme Republi can and Federa l party . I t now appears that Mr. Lincoln is not prepared to take such a step; but that whatever overture of peace and reunion he may think proper to make will be reserved for his annual Message to Congress, to be delivered on the 4th of December. His time is so fully occupied with the preparation of that deco. ment that the Washington newspapers have been instructed on his behalf to request the public to postpone their visits either of congratulation or of business for the next 12 days, and leave the Presi dent to the seclusion of his study. I3ut, hovvever roseate may be the anticipations of peace to grow out of anything that the President may say, or any terms he may offer, it is to G enera l Sherman th a t th e people are principally loo ki ng for the reali sa ti on of their hopes. His mysterious march with 50,000 men south from Atlanta is not yet explained, but any one who presumes to assert that, whatever his et or his point of desti nation may be, the movement is not certain to succeed, is denounced as a bad citizen---or an envio.zs foreigner. The Administration, the press, and the people have made up their minds that Sher man knows no such word as " fail." The more sub. , guine expect to hear before many days that he has marched either unopposed, or from easy victory to victories still easier, through 300 miles of fertile and hitherto undevastated territory, feeding himself as he went, and placed himself before Mobile, Sa vannah, and Charleston, preparatory to his final junction with General Grant, and a combined ono slaught upon Richmond. Nothing is to mar, int./ pede, or prevent the success of the mighty project. --- WirerrtirerAtlantic - cities - and Rlchmond are taken, when the armies of Lee are scattered, and when that groat General himself is a fugitive to the wilds and morasses, or the jungles of the cotton States, bearing with him the forlorn remnants of his once proud hosts, together with the Southern Presi.‘ dent and the moot prominent members of his Ad ministration, the the benefie ,, ot, the heroic Piesident 'Lincoln . is to offer the olive branch. in a grateful speech, carefully prearranged by Mr Seward. He will hint no word of extermination ; ho will withdraw his decrees of confiscation; he will say nothing about slavery, except that it may take its chance to live or die as circumstances may des tide; and he will not only offer Mr Jefferson Davis forgiveness, bat a place in his Cabinet, and Gen. Lee a high command in his armies, if they will cordially return to the Union which they spurned in days when they were unaware of its power, ana lend their aid, their influence, and their talents to the vindica. Lion of the Monroe doctrine, the expulsion of Maxi• milian from Mexico, and the presentation In Eng• land of that " little bill" for the depredations of Captains Semmes and Maffitt, which, if it be left unpaid, will cost " perfidious Albion " nothing less than Canada and the whole of British America, as well as her leading place in the councils of civilie sation. The Americans neither act nor dream by halves. All their exaggerations assume the largest possible shapes; and if in their present exhilaration they indulge in visions that are somewhat too lag travagant, they will make amends on the other side, if the wheel of fortune should revolve unfavourably, and paint to themselves for a little while a future as black and gloomy as that to which they now look forward is rainbow•like and splendid. Gen. Grant —one of the twin heroes who is to effect the glorious consummation upon which all hearts are set—except those of Copperheads and Englishmen (John Bright, Richard Cobden, and Professor Smith, of Oxford, not included)—has been in New York incognito . during the last few days, and returned yesterday to hie headquarters with the army of the Potomac. As he could go nowhere but to an hotel, and as he could not be half-an-hour in any hotel without being recognised by some of the crowd of loungers who frequent the bars and lobbies of such establishments, it speedily became known that the great man was at the Astor•house, A sere nade was promptly arranged in his honour, and as Mr Reuben Fenton, the newly elected Governor of New York, was in the house at the same time, it was arranged to make that virgin functionary a joint recipient of this mark of popular regard. The re.. porters of the Herald and other papers heard of what was intended and duly prepared their pencils and note books to take down the speeches which it was the object of the serenaders to extort from the dis tinguished strangers. But General Grant has a dislike of speech making and a horror of publicity, and peremptorily refused even to show himself unv less the reporters pledged themselves on their ho• nour not to mention his presence in the oity until to-day (Tuesday), or 21 hours after he should have taken his departure. The reporters behaved themselves as gentlemen should, and not a word wag printed until this morning about the General's pro• oeedings. It appears that the General was most enthusiastically received by the Astor-house habits toes and loungers and a largo accession of the pass- ing public, that he obstinately refused to speak a. word, deputed his friend Gen. Sickles to return thanks in his stead, that he bowed to the audience three or four times, looking all the while exceedingly uncomfortable, and that he withdrew from the popular gaze as soon after Gen, Sickles had con• eluded as was consistent with propriety. He after 4 wards called privately upon Gen. Winfield Scott, who has been amusieg his leisure since he retired from the command of the Federal army by writing and publishing his autobiography, and received from that illustrious veteran a copy of the work, with the inscription on the flyleaf that it was presented by the oldest to the ablest General in the world. " Call no man happy until he is dead," was au ancient adage. " Call no man able until he has done his work" might be its modern synonym in military affairs, though General Scott is apparently of the opinion that ability may be shown in au unfinished work as well as in a completed one, and that the failure to take Richmond will not derogate from the claims of his Protege to rank higher than all the generals of Eu 4 rope or Asia, to say nothing of such a fellow• Virg inian as Robert E. Lae. The American Nestor, it must be owned, is a sturdy flatterer—but, as he was once a strong fighter, his weakness may be pardoned. General Grant's admirers report of Mtn that he has not forgotten how to blush, and that, although brave as a lion, ho is in some respects as sensitive as a girl. It may be presumed that ott this occasion at least the tell-tale blood canto mant4 ling to his cheeks, when conscience told him that the compliment was the result of age and good nature rather than that of truth and hard experience. Governor Fenton, as a professional politician, Bei customed to make speeches, had less reason and leas desire for reticence than General Grant, and favoured the serenaders and the crowd of spectators with his opinions upon his own election and that of Mr Lincoln. ile considered the double event to be highly satisfactory, nano doubt it is to both of these hi g h personages. But what was extraordid nary, at least as regards Mr Lincoln's triumph, was Mr Fenton's assertion that " It was a triumph of the great principle of man's right of self-government.'' To other people not in Mr Fenton's position, or seeing through his eyes, or through Northern spec tacles, Mr Lincoln's re-election looks more like the triumph of the very opposite principle, the denial of the right of self- government to the people of the Confederat e St a t es, w h o t hi nk that they are as welt entitled to s ever th e i r pol i tical partnership with the North as the ancestors of both the Northern and Southern people were to dissolve their political connexion with Great Britain, Mr. Fenton went on to say that his and Mr Lincoln's victory WaH that of "democracy over an aris4 tucracy that would create a despotism upon the ruins of lihrrty"—the very result that the North is attaining under Mr Lincoln's auspices with a rapiq dity unparalleled in the history of the world. Mr Lincoln, it is true, is not an aristocrat —very far from it—but what of that P A homicide is none the less a homicide because ho happens to bo a plebeian, and if Mr Lincoln's fatality is to destroy the liberty of the North, in the attempt to subjugate the South, posterity will find but small con4olation in the fact that he was a Democrat, in the European rather than in the American sense of the word —and that he was by no means a member of any aristocracy hitherto known among men. With these exceptions the new Governor's speech was not remarkable, less it be fur its unfavourable contrast in point cf vigour of expression and statesmanship of charseter with all the public utterances of his able but some♦ what timid predecesbor, Mr Seymour.
